Mother-in-Law's Diary

Women’s fates are always at the center of attention for Maria Metlitskaya. Every reader who reads her book can confidently say that their soul feels better and lighter: the warm tone, life situations, recognizable characters – all have a psychotherapeutic... effect.

“Mother-in-Law's Diary” is the most famous novel by Maria Metlitskaya, which, according to one journalist's witty remark, should be issued at the registry office along with the marriage certificate.

Has your son, whom you seem to have just brought home from the maternity ward and recently took to first grade, changed a lot? He’s texting, hanging on the phone for hours, and responding inappropriately? The diagnosis is clear. Remember the joke: a mother spends twenty years making a man out of her son, and his girlfriend is capable of turning him into an idiot in twenty minutes. Yes, yes, the hour is not far off when you will become not just a woman, and not just a wife and mother, but a mother-in-law. And you definitely need to read this book, because it is great therapy both for those who have recently become mothers-in-law and for those who have carried this burden for a long time, and for those who fear changes in their lives.
Or maybe you are that very girl who has turned the family's hope into a lovesick fool? Then this book is for you as well – after all, every mother-in-law was once a bride. And every bride – attention! – can someday become a mother-in-law.
